    Dear @VeloxMedia

    I just renewed my server with account credit. However you charged my card and took my credit?

    Your Order Number is: 8536601626

    Say whaaaaattt?

    How to proceed.?

    Reguards

    If she has account credit, the renew can be an option. If it can't even ask for a credit refund. Now I'm trying to realize how that happened. It is CC the preferred method? How CC is saved when you actually have an option to not save it.

    Do you have a better idea? Let's hear your elevator pitch

    1. Follow the law
    2. Honour your contracts when you purchase a business
    3. ?
    4. Profit

    We didn't purchase a business

    Oh? So why do you have the veloxmedia.co.uk domain name, access to all the servers, a copy of the entire customer database, the ability to snoop on Lewis' private emails from stripe, etc?

    Why did you say "Lewis is gone and just handed me the keys to everything." then?

    Why did Lewis say:

    Benthost are the new owners.
    I don’t know if they will use the discord server but I have offered it to them as well.
    They will be taking the official VeloxMedia lowendtalk account.

    It sure looks like a sale, even if the nominal fair value was $0 (the value of the brand and customers cancelling out the loss making deals) and he just handed it to you for free.

    If it wasn't a sale, why are you continuing to pay out, even boasting about how you're going to buy new hardware just to support Lewis' customers who aren't giving you a penny (except, they already did, it was baked into the valuation of the business being worth $0), why knowingly break the law over it?

    It literally makes no sense, unless either you are obligated to honour those contracts, or you are in cahoots with Lewis to drag this out past the chargeback period before shutting everything down.

    I can cite 2 clowns in real world LET that holds customers data from previous owners

    But, do they treat those customers exactly like their other customers, or do they say they have no obligations to them and threaten that their service might be cut off whenever they feel like it?

    Clowns are clowns

    They succeed in one place (they think) but fail everywhere else

    @Saragoldfarb - you need to successfully make a payment in order to become their customer. That way they will become legally bound because they took your money. However, are you sure you want to pay them?

    They have all her PII still though, and no business justification for keeping it.

    I slept in and I woke up to 10 more pages and it's only gotten worse...

    Still no action from the LET staff I really don't know why we are letting this continue when everyone knows this is legally questionable and VeloxMedia admits to willingly holding data they didn't agree to yet continue to hold... Can't explain why either and still doesn't know how to PR or what they are doing.

    I have a quick question. If someone issued a chargeback without informing Veloxmedia, would they still receive the service for free? How would the company find out about the chargeback if they don’t have access to the bank account used for the payment? Am I right?

    They probably have access to the emails in some way or have email notifications being sent to alternative email address (kind of common to do either or).

    So they'll know.

    And just to make this crystal clear for the likes of @jsg:

    I don't want everyone's servers to get cancelled.

    I want @VeloxMedia to promise to honour the contracts to term. I don't understand why you wouldn't want that.

    If he's as altruistic as he says, there's literally no difference to him making that promise as not, but it would give everyone confidence that they can make use of the server without fear of it suddenly vanishing along with all their data.

    If he's not planning to keep the servers running long enough for that, there is no reason for him to be holding on to everyone's PII. Well, other than that it can fetch a good price on the black market.

    Guys, another huge red flag. Every costumer, former customer and new customer will be a number. You should had 0. This is not the way to treat a customer. And after all, remember that customer is always right, even when it isn't.

    I know I'm enjoying this now. Somehow this thread has turned into people upset I'm NOT deleting their data but won't tell me their info. I think everyone has ran out of reasons to complain so just making it all up

    We have the transactionID from the initial purchase and both stripe and PayPal have integrations for any vendor to check the status. They eventually mark it as disputed when we then can submit the client as fraud which can cause issues with your bank and stuff. Also we delete the account.

    It just makes more sense to pop a ticket so we delete the account and make life easier for everyone.

    Lewis was responsible for your agreement and your data.

    Thank you for clarifying this. I am glad Lewis was responsible for my data. I paid him for precisely that.

    I'm not responsible for your data, Lewis is.

    You did not answer my question as to why my data is with you. I have not paid you, I paid Lewis, but you have my data, and my account, and my info. You said you are GDPR compliant - I hereby invoke the GDPR legislation in demanding explanation from you as to why you have my data.

    Where are you seeing that any responsibility was transferred from lewis to me?

    You have my data. You should answer this. You must explain yourself, not me. I paid Lewis, and now you have my invoice in how I paid Lewis. You also have my data which Lewis hosted; so you're the one to answer.

    What notification or agreement or anything did you receive saying this?

    You stated you acquired Veloxmedia and its data in this thread.

    Who specifically did you pay for the service.

    VeloxMedia - but the data is with you. It is up to you to justify yourself.

    What does your credit card statement say?

    [REDACTED ON THIS FORUM] (for GDPR legislation with regards to sensitive data - you should know this)

    Who signed your agreement?

    VeloxMedia - now with you because you have the whole client area

    These are what matter and none of this is with us.

    Actually it is, all of it is. The whole client area and all the services are with you.

    Ahh I see the issue. We're Velox Media inc.

    Really? Who have I just payed then?

    It even shows as pending on your photo and it'll be refunded

    Just because you put your info in doesn't mean we accepted your order.

    Need all screens and docs? Who did I pay? Who are you?

    Didn't you just give us your data when you tried to make an order?
